Nothing wrong with that :)
I'm a huge fan of sci-fi, but particularly Iain M Banks and his culture series of novels are what got me into sci-fi writing. I guess in that way I'm more of a modernist with my sci-fi tastes... having said that I was brought up with first series Star trek and films like ET and Flight of the navigator 🤣 Clasiic cheesy 80's sci-fi right there.
I read a great deal when I was young, one of my favourites was Soul of a Robot by Barrington J. Bayley - considering when it was written well ahead of his time!
I'll check that out, I haven't read it.
A good book, or film, recommendation is worth its weight in gold in these lockdown times. I've read my own weight in books the last year.
